Chapter 154: Annihilating Two Drones

The soldiers soon arrived, two of them in total.

Gu Huai征 asked, "Around eight-thirty this morning, was there a man with a buzz cut, short and skinny, under one-seventy meters tall, wearing..."

He looked toward Lu Jianwei, which struck everyone as rather odd. What did Regiment Commander Gu mean by making his wife confess herself?

Niu Kairui hurriedly chimed in, "Wearing a white dacron shirt on top, and military green trousers on the bottom."

She was afraid Lu Jianwei would tell lies.

Lu...

As all these years passed, she remained as beautiful as she was on her wedding day. Yet, while the person stayed the same, her heart had changed, losing that initial beauty.

Regrettably, this place was far more barren than he had imagined. The strong were pitifully few, and there were hardly any who caught his eye.

Filled with evident affection, he cast a covert glance at Huang Xinting. Fearing he would be caught, he quickly lowered his head, not daring to look again.

Feeling the unusual texture against his palm, he raised his hand and opened it. What he held in his hand was the jade bi that had previously hung from Duan Jingqi's waist.

Watching the silent exchange between the two before her, Chen Feng asked, "What are you two doing, making eyes at each other like that?"

This was the first time in years that Shi Hui had given a direct answer to this question, his eyes gleaming with an unusual brilliance as he spoke.

Yun Kun could only focus on his raised left hand, where a red spider lily bloomed with dazzling vibrancy on his fair, slender ring finger.

"Are you still going to eat?" Xu Wen smiled and withdrew his finger. Seeing Lin Sheng shake his head, he put the cake from the table into the refrigerator.

"Xiao Bai, it's already this late, and you're still not awake?" He Lin asked upon hearing the sound of Xiao Bai yawning on the other end of the phone.

Sikong Yi flew into a towering rage. "Bring Murong Yanyi to my presence." Before he could fully understand his feelings for Lin Nianwan, he would never allow anyone to ruin the relationship between them.

He was ugly, lacked social tact, and wasn't smart. His usual work was also dangerous, and it was common for him to be away from home for ten days or half a month at a time. If he wasn't careful, even his family would suffer retaliation and revenge, yet he still wanted to be Xingxing's boyfriend.

A strange look swept across her eyes, as if she were filled with intense anticipation for what was about to happen.

"Yue'er, what is this..." Looking at the birthday cake on the table before her, Princess Beiyue asked curiously, unable to hold back.

Liqing played with Leng Xiange's hair, babbling incoherently for a moment before letting go to tug at Leng Xiange's clothes. Leng Xiange teased him, causing him to giggle sometimes, or purse his lips and turn his head away.

Lin Yuchen nearly coughed up a mouthful of old blood. How long ago was that matter? Besides, it wasn't because of those past words that he was unwilling to see Sikong Xiang; rather, it was because Sikong Xiang had deceived him back then, along with the pursuit and assassination of Lin Nianwan. These two points were what Lin Yuchen could never forgive.

Cao Weiqing was also well aware of the immense pressure Li Guangyu was facing, especially over the past two years, as American financial groups stepped up their suppression of the Li financial conglomerate. Many matters concerning the major enterprises within the conglomerate required his careful thought and decision-making.

With these words, he led Yue Huan toward the mansion's gates. Just as they reached the entrance, the doors were pushed open from the outside, and the official seal affixed to them snapped.

Had Sikong Yi known what was passing through Sikong Zhiyi's mind, he undoubtedly would have sneered. Reputation? What did reputation matter? His father would only feel heartache for his mother's harrowing experiences over the years; how could he possibly care about her reputation? Besides, all these years, Sikong Zhiyi had done nothing—no, to be more precise, he had been incapable of doing anything at all.

Wang Jian was actually the ruler of Former Shu; how could he possibly be without ambition? That was nearly impossible. At this moment, Wang Jian had already bared his fangs.

However, before he could heave a sigh of relief, a weak wolf howl came from the newly awakened mother wolf, instantly chilling Ye Qing's excited heart.

Inside the side hall of the City Lord's Manor, Ye Han gazed at Tang Mumuan after she had eaten some food, instructing her to get a good night's sleep.

Of course, what they did not know was that in order to catch a glimpse of Young Master Xiao, they had already taken over someone else's stall. The stall owner smiled slightly as he looked at Xiao Yi, gratitude shining in his eyes—he was none other than the martial arts seller from Luoyang City who had stepped in to uphold justice that very day.
